𝐈𝐒𝐀𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐀 𝐇𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐎𝐍 is the fireball of the group-the life of the party, the girl who always knows how to have fun, and the friend you can always rely on. She believes in love like it's written in the stars, like it's meant to be grand and all-consuming. But what most people don't see is the bleeding heart beneath her confident smile. The same heart that beats fiercely for love is the same one that shatters the hardest. And now, she's starting to wonder-does love heal, or does it only wound? 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐒 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 is the guy who never takes anything seriously. He's the one cracking jokes when the room gets tense, the one who turns everything into a game, the friend who always has your back. People love him for it, but they don't realize that it's his way of keeping his own demons at bay. His laughter masks the weight he carries, the things he'd rather drown in another drink than face. But some pain can't be laughed off, and some losses can't be undone. She's searching for something real. He's terrified of facing reality. But when the lines between them blur, when love becomes both the wound and the cure-will he finally step up before she slips away for good?

Venomous Mistake This is Marco and Clara's brutal/sexy story. Clara Revenge was my goal-to take down the enemy. I've trained under my Uncle, but everything crumbles when my foolish heart starts beating for a man I shouldn't want. Rule one-seek vengeance for my parents and disappear. One ludicrous mistake, and he has me-punishing me and forcing my secrets out. I'm on a mission, but the heart wants what it wants. I'm running, and he is following. Even war can't stop love, can it? Marco One look at the black-haired mamba, and I knew she was trouble. My life has been nothing but void with the pulling of triggers and following rules. I wanted her until she betrayed me. She lurked in tall grass like the snake she was and struck when no one expected her to. She sought revenge, and now she is on the loose. You know the saying, "If you want something, go get it. Period." It's what I did. She made one mistake, and I've got her right where I needed her. Is my punishment enough to unravel her secrets, and will the world turn against us in the moment of love? Two things were certain: Clara Aguilar's fangs are sharp, and her venom is poisonous.

|STEAMY ROMANCE| 18+ "Oh, how bad I want to corrupt you, ruin you. But you're not ready for that." As much as I want her beneath me, writhing, begging me to stop. There is a time and a place for all that, which now is not the time nor place. A blush forms on her cheeks as she looks away. I put my finger under her chin and gently lift her face. "Look at me, my love. I want to see those beautiful cherry cheeks of yours." I love how responsive she is to me. Seeing her blush and shy away from me is one of my favorite things about her. "Stop, Ansel," she giggled. "You can't just say things like that and expect me to remain unfazed". I find it amusing that she is completely unaware of the power she has over me. God, if we didn't have to leave, I would've shown her what she does to me. "I'm not going to apologize, my love. You make me want to give you the world, yet corrupt that innocent aura you have. Let's go, darling, we are going to be late." I take her hand and guide her to the passenger side of the door, opening it, allowing her to climb into the car. Walking to the drivers' side, I get in making sure she is buckled, before buckling myself. Once I see her buckled, I start the car, putting my hand on her thigh. When Emory Miller attracts Ansel Dubois' attention, things are destined to happen.

"You didn't let him kill me? Isn't that what you've always wanted?" Ivy spat at me, she could pretend to be angry all she wanted but I knew she was scared. I imagined she's never been so close to death, her dark red hair was plastered to her chest and she was sweating. I took one more drag of my cigarette before chucking it into the bin and advancing towards her. She took a step back, I knew I wouldn't be able to touch her. She'd be long gone before I even reached for my gun. But that wasn't what I wanted. "It is.

"You can hate me all you want, Eliana. You can convince yourself that I'm the worst human being on this fucking planet, but it doesn't change how much I love you, how much I've always loved you. There is no one on this planet who I have loved as fiercely as I have loved you!" He throws his hands up in the air, frustration clear on his face and I swallow hard having to look away from his intense gaze. "But you left," I whisper meekly feeling my guard crumble bit by bit. The silence between me and Reid is tense. The way we look at each other has my heart pounding in my chest and my breath stuttering. There's a metre between us and Reid's chest heaves as he tries to calm down. "You left, Reid." I croak, my eyes burning with tears and his face softens. He closes the space between us and cradles my face in between his large, soft, tattooed hands, leaning down to rest his forehead against mine, his eyes fluttering shut. "And I'll never leave you again, Eliana. Death would have to take me before I left you, baby."
